Grain weight and number of pods per plant in a soybean bed (Glycine max) treated in the planting furrow with a similia-based agronomic product prepared by magnetic printing

Using products prepared by magnetic printing polar solvents in agriculture has become popular in recent years and follows a trend to increase agricultural production free of toxic residues. Obtaining these products is based on three steps: a) application of the Goethianistic observation method of “indicator plants” present in specific terrains and comparison with different materia medica, b) collection of water from springs close to the observed plants, followed by exposure to the sun for 2 hours and preparation of a 30% hydroalcoholic solution (for preservation) in corn cereal alcohol, c) serial fabrication of products using the Potentizer II™ device (Curitiba, Brazil), whose function is to identify the magnetic profile (frequency) of a polar vehicle and imprint the same onto another, through reading and emission of ultra-long waves, whose amplitude varies from 1 to 20,000 Hertz. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of applying AQ RESIST™, a product prepared by this method, on the number of pods per plant and weight of soybean grains whose land was in the process of migrating from traditional to organic cultivation, with a history of decades of use of pesticides. AQ RESIST™ is produced by mixing water samples collected from four different sources located in the Bodoquena mountain range, MS, Brazil, called Argilus teluricum, Aqua pleiadianus, Magnetum terrestris, and Aqua telassensiscujas, whose “indicator plants” are found in areas submitted to chronic intoxication, soil infertility and greater susceptibility to pests. The study was carried out in an experimental area of ​​the Technical Course in Agriculture, São Gabriel do Oeste, MS, in clay soil, classified as “Dystroferric Red Latosol” predominant in the region. The plots were determined in the same area and under the same climatic conditions. None of the plots were close to water sources. The region's climate corresponded to the typical patterns of the Brazilian Savanah (“Cerrado”), with very distinct divisions between the dry and rainy seasons. The experiment was implemented after verifying the one hundred millimeters of rain indicated for the beginning of sowing on October 25, 2022, during the southern hemisphere spring. Climatic conditions were not controlled during the experiment, but cultivation occurred during a favorable period for soybeans, following the agricultural routine established in the region. Two plots were created (test and control), each with 30 m², with 10 m² space for irrigation between them. In the soil of the test plot, 100 ml of AQ RESIST™ diluted in 20 liters of water was applied to the planting furrow using a backpack pump. The same process was used in the control plot's soil, but only the vehicle (30% hydroalcoholic solution) was used without blinding. Sequential plant sampling was performed from interspersed rows in 70 rows, resulting in 35 plants harvested from each plot (test and control), counting the number of pods per plant. Student's t-test for independent samples (one-tailed) indicated a significant difference (t = 1.69, p < 0.05) between the pod production of the test samples (57.6 pods/plant) and the control samples (51.3 pods/plant). Subsequently, the grains obtained from each plant were weighed on an analytical balance SHIMADZU UNIBLOC, GR. SENS. 0.1mg (Kyoto, Japan) to calculate the average weight of each grain and, finally, the weight of a thousand grains (a unit commonly used in agricultural production metrics). In the context of agricultural production, the weight of a thousand grains can directly influence crop yield. In the treated group, the total weight of the seeds was 174.5 g versus 167.8 g in the control group, resulting in seeds 3.84% heavier in the treated sample, predicting greater yield potential for the crop subjected to this treatment. Thus, the treatment with the AQ RESIST™ product resulted in more outstanding production of pods and heavier grains. The data obtained are promising, but additional research is still needed to evaluate the effectiveness of the product in different situations: with a more significant number of plants, in less favorable soil conditions, with different strains of the plant, at different times of the year. Additionally, the reproducibility of the input also needs to be tested, and its validation needs to be done by comparing its effects with classic dynamized inputs (homeopathic). Although the literature on such products is still scarce, a previous study comparing Arnica montana 6cH prepared in a classical manner and with similar equipment showed similar results. However, the shape of inhibition curves of inflammatory edema as a function of time (inflammatory kinetics) and pain behavior differed.
